Orientaciones curriculares para la incorporación de la educación inclusiva en Colegios Públicos del Distrito Capital

Abstract

This PhD thesis document presents the results of a research developed in the school ―República Bolivariana de Venezuela‖, through the systematization of the experience in inclusive education as the focus of its institutional educational project. This investigation allowed at first defining the scope and limitations of the project, then making a documentary review of the texts, that guide the public policy of inclusive education in Bogota as a capital city, and in particular designing a proposal of curricular guidelines for the adoption of inclusive education as a political and pedagogical project in the public schools in Bogota. As a general conclusion, the research showed that inclusive education is a political and pedagogical act that diminishes the learning barriers imposed on children, who have been systematically marginalized from school; it expands students' abilities for their learning and provides opportunities in environments nourished with meaning, thus guaranteeing the right to education for all.
